Side 449 - I beseech you, in the bowels of Christ, think it possible you may be mistaken.
Side 251 - Unskilful he to note the card Of prudent lore, Till billows rage, and gales blow hard, And whelm him o'er ! Such fate to suffering worth is...

Side 193 - Now poetry is nothing less than the most perfect speech of man, that in which he comes nearest to being able to utter the truth.
Side 197 - Keats consoles the forward-bending lover on the Grecian Urn, the lover arrested and presented in immortal relief by the sculptor's hand before he can kiss, with the line, " For ever wilt thou love, and she be fair
